Abstract excerpt
Mutant lines of Arabidopsis thaliana that are either blocked at various steps of the biosynthetic pathway of chlorophyll (Chl) or that are disturbed in one of the subsequent steps leading to the assembly of an active photosynthetic membrane were isolated by screening for Chl-deficient xantha (xan) mutants. Only mutants that segregated in a 3:1 ratio, that contained the same carotenoid spectrum as etiolated...
